Caution

When advancing/reversing frames while dividing the scenes, the interval between frames is about 0.5 seconds.
If the scene cannot be divided at the point where you paused the playback, advance/reverse a frame and then divide the scene.
During the playback of a scene that was divided, you may notice some anomalies in the picture/sound at the point where the scene was cut.
Scenes that are too short (less than 3 seconds) cannot be divided.
Scenes cannot be divided within 1 second from the beginning or the end of the scene.
